How to Beat Relentless Charger

Tips
Use Wind Attacks
Attack its Weak Point
Attack When its Downed
Avoid its Over Limit Attacks

Attack its Weak Point

Relentless Charger's Weak Point is found on its head – directly targeting its glowing horns will allow you to more easily break its core, downing it and leaving it open to your attacks.

You can down the boss by using Alphen's Boost Attack – alternatively, you can use Kisara's Boost Attack to stop a charge attack to get the same effect.

Use Wind Attacks

Relentless Charger is an Earth-type enemy, and as such its weakness is Wind-type attacks. Using a number of Arcane Artes, particularly from Rinwell, will help deal elemental damage against this boss.

Attack When it's Downed

After managing to down Relentless Charger, hit it hard with Boost Attacks from your party members and use Alphen's charged artes as they deal extra damage to downed foes.

If you are having difficulty dodging the boss' attacks when trying to get to its horns, attacking the weak spot while it is down is a highly effective way to deal significant damage to it.

Avoid its Over Limit Attacks

When the boss starts to glows blue, it has entered its Over Limit state. It will unrelentingly attack the party, which might make it difficult for you to deal damage while it is constantly moving. It is best to avoid these attacks and go for counterattacks until its Over Limit expires.

Recommended Party Setup for Relentless Charger

Party Members

Leader	Members
Alphen Lv.25	Shionne Lv.25	Rinwell Lv.25	Kisara Lv.25

Unlock Wind-type Artes

It is highly recommended that you equip your party with Wind-type Artes before fighting the Relentless Charger. In particular, Rinwell's Astral Artes can really help to end the fight much faster.

Use Boost Attacks

Apart from making use of Kisara's Boost Attack to block the boss' charges, you can also use Alphen's Boost Attack to stop the boar in its tracks.

For Kisara's Boost Attack wait for the boar to get near you while charging before triggering the attack, which will cause it to fall on its side. In Alphen's case, just be within melee range and you can stagger the boss with a Boost Attack at any time, as long as the boss is not in Over Limit mode.

This Boost Attacks are also an effective way to damage the boss' Weak Point.

Shionne Equipment and Artes

Burning Strike	Glacio Celestra
Magna Ray	-

Time Healing Artes Carefully

Although Shionne's Healing Circle arte can heal the entire party in one go, be careful of using it whenever Relentless Charger is preparing for another charge attack. Your party members will likely be gathered in the area of effect of the Healing Circle, but that also makes them easy targets and they can take damage simultaneously if they are caught by a charge attack.

Rinwell Equipment and Artes

Rinwell Lv.25	Equipment
	Silver Sword the Owl
	Topaz Cloak
	Garnet
Ground Artes	Aerial Artes
Air Thrust	Swallow's Flight
Spread	Placid Pool
Tempest Whirl	-

Turn Off All Other Artes

To maximize your damage output with Rinwell, make sure to turn off her Artes that are not Wind-type ones if you're not planning on directly controlling her. This is to make sure that she does not automatically use Artes that deal less damage than her Wind attacks against Relentless Charger.

Kisara Equipment and Artes

	Imperial Shield

Use Boost Attack to Stop Charges

Although not the most powerful attacker at this stage in the game, Kisara's Boost Attacks are an effective tool to use against Relentless Charger's charge attacks. Kisara's Boost Attack also causes the boss to drop to the ground when hit during its charge, similar to how Alphen's Boost Attack works.

Relentless Charger Attack Patterns

Charge Attack

Relentless Charger is incredibly similar to Boars that you encounter as a regular enemy. It will kick its feet up right before charging at you. Getting caught in this attack will cause you to be either pushed aside, thrust into the air or knocked down.

It will rear its head upwards and turn around to face you again at the end of its charge, which also causes damage when its feet land if you are within its immediate vicinity.

Horn Thrust

Provided that you are close enough, Relentless Charger can simply ram its horn against you with a quick thrust. These are simple to avoid or perform a dodge against, which opens up the possibility of a counter-attack against its Weak Point.

Side Attack

Attacking Relentless Charger from the sides will cause it to shift its body sideways against you. Compared to its Horn Thrust, this type of attack is difficult to avoid due to the boss' large size, especially if you are locked into an attack animation.

Consecutive Charge Attack

When its life has been successfully halved, it can perform its regular Charge Attack against you. However, it will now be able to charge you again immediately after it performs the initial Charge Attack.

Roar

Sometimes after its Charge Attacks – consecutive or otherwise – Relentless Charger will let out a roar. Staying in its path will cause you damage and you will momentarily enter a stunned state.
